We could either modify the macro from libtool, or have the top-level
configure pass --enable-shared=no unless it is explicitly enabled.

I tend to prefer the latter.

The current state of .eh_frame is that is does contain -- at least
for elf shared libraries -- runtime relocations.  I don't know for
sure if this affects dll's but it seems like it would.

Subject: objdump segv
Message-ID: <m167qevs8l.fsf@creche.cygnus.com>

Is this the right place to send this?  I don't see a binutils group.


My i386-cygwin32-objdump (hosted on Linux) segvs when run on
mapi32.dll:

creche. i386-cygwin32-objdump -p mapi32.dll 

mapi32.dll:     file format pei-i386

  [ lots of output ]

Segmentation fault (core dumped)



Here's a stack trace:

I'll happily send along any info you might want.
